Cupcakes Stands

The moment I saw them I immediattly decided I was going to do my own. London is the perfect place to treasure hunt for old crockery shouting out to be recycled from charity shops.

These are the first two. Still have to work on getting them bang in the middle and the best glue to use. For these I used superglue but am not sure if it is the best solution.. am going to try with 'UhU' next.. I'm sure the more I make the better they will be!

to see Gustavo Ortiz's exhibition 'Metamorphosis' - really enjoyed this. The pieces are a mixed media of painting with collage. This series in particular is based on the Argentinian 'myth of origin' according to which in the begginning there were only people and then people transformed into everything: trees, the sea, the sky, etc.. I love trees so I had to pick this one.

It all turned into a bit of a jollie after a few drinks.........

and when we finally made it to the pub, I saw this form of pool I hadn't come across before!

This was the last photo I took that night after a considerable amount of booze had been consumed!!
